Xiao Junxi didn't know what Xie Ruzhuo was thinking. Seeing that her face was as calm as an ancient well, she felt interesting in her heart, but she said, "Aren't you afraid that I will tell my father?"
Hearing this, Xie Ruzhuo came back from her memories and subconsciously blurted out, "You don't know how." After saying this, she felt regretful and wanted to bite off her tongue, and added as a remedy. , "Because, Shen Jingci is really pretending."
"You're interesting." When Xie Ruzhuo said those three words, Xiao Junxi's memories suddenly overlapped. It was as if the little girl in the memory said to herself firmly, "You can't."
However, this memory was shattered after she spoke her next words. Xiao Junxi was a little disappointed, but she said calmly, "How do you know she is pretending to be a ghost?"
"I'm afraid her thoughts are known to everyone on the street, right?" Xie Ruzhuo snorted coldly, not hiding the disgust in his eyes, and then said, "It's just that I can't figure out why someone would want to kill you?" Logically speaking, Xiao Junxi has already made it clear that he has no intention of becoming emperor in this life, so no one should be targeting him. But that assassination was obviously aimed at Xiao Junxi.
Xiao Junxi didn't care about this matter, "There are too many things in this world that can't be understood. If you think about them all, wouldn't you be asking for trouble? As for you, why are you targeting Shen Jingci? After all, Shen Jingci today Although there must be a plan for everything arranged, the plan is obviously not the Xie family."
Xie Ruzhuo answered very frankly this time, saying, "What you do brings results, I just don't want anyone to step on the Xie family and get the upper hand. Besides, even if I am just a woman, I still have the obligation to protect the Xie family!"
This time, Xiao Junxi didn't say anything more, she just drank the tea in her hand slowly, then called her maid, and finally sent Xie Ruzhuo home.
Xie Ruzhuo did not refuse and said, "Thank you, Third Prince, for the good tea." He got up and left with the maid.
After Xie Ruzhuo's figure gradually disappeared, a shadow guard appeared next to Xiao Junxi.
"Master, what are your orders for calling me here?" Shadow Guard's voice was very calm, and he spoke like a machine without any emotion.
Xiao Junxi thought for a while and then said, "Nanshuo, from today on, you will keep an eye on every move of the Shen family. If the Shen family has any conspiracy against the Xie family, come and report to me at any time."
"I obey my orders."
After Nan Shuo finished saying this, he disappeared without a trace again. Xiao Junxi was left alone in the room again. He stood in front of the window with his hands behind his hands, frowning deeply.
He understood Xie Ruzhuo. If the Shen family had not done anything they shouldn't have done to the Xie family, then Xie Ruzhuo's attitude would not be so hateful. Therefore, he must know what happened.
The weather outside had turned cloudy again at some point, and the air was filled with signs of an approaching storm. Xiao Junxi let out a deep breath, and the little girl in her memory seemed to flash before her eyes. She was wearing a bright red jacket and shouting crisply, "Little brother, little brother."
Xiao Junxi stretched out her hand, trying to catch the little girl in the void, but she only caught the cool breeze in her hand. He stared at his palm for a while, gradually tightening it into a ball.
No one can hurt the woman he protects!
As soon as the carriage entered the second gate, Pearl was waiting here with an anxious look on her face. Seeing Xie Ruzhuo get out of the car, Pearl immediately ran over in three steps and said anxiously, "Fourth Miss, you are back. Second Miss went to Aunt Liu to cause trouble for Sixth Miss. Go and have a look!"
Hearing this, Xie Ruzhuo secretly said something bad. What this mother and daughter are usually good at is pretending to be innocent and throwing dirty water. Xie Ruyue has a hot temper, but has no intentions. If she bumps into these two people, Xie Ruyue will definitely suffer! After thinking about it, she hurriedly gave Jiang Zhu a few words and hurriedly walked towards Aunt Liu's yard.
When Xie Ruzhuo arrived, he happened to hear Xie Ruyue yelling at Xie Ruyin inside.
"Xie Ruyin, did you enjoy what you did today? You threw water on your fourth sister and plagiarized her paintings. You really know how to steal the limelight. You have already stolen it from your own sisters, right?"
Xie Ruyue was still not relieved as she spoke, so she took a breath and said, "You look so soft and weak on weekdays, how could you do such things like stabbing someone in the back!"
Pearl entered the house first, supported her master, and said softly, "Second Miss, please calm down."
If anyone was unaware of the situation in this room, they would definitely think that the second young lady was bullying the fourth young lady!
After listening to Xie Ruyue's words, Xie Ruyin didn't refute, she just blushed and sobbed in grievance. When she cried, she didn't howl loudly, she just choked and sobbed, looking aggrieved like someone who had been bullied. Aunt Liu was uncharacteristically not scolding, she just held Xie Ruyin in her arms and comforted her carefully.
Xie Ruzhuo came in through the curtain and saw Xie Ruyin like this. She turned a blind eye and walked directly to Xie Ruyue and said, "What's wrong? I just came a little late and this is what happened?"
Hearing this, Xie Ruyue suddenly said angrily, "What's wrong? Of course it happened in the morning! Humph, he looks so honest, how could he do such dirty things!" Xie Ruyue hated this picture of Xie Ruyin the most. He looked aggrieved and aggrieved, deliberately pretending to be pitiful, and those who didn't show up made people feel angry.
However, she wanted to scold her again, but Xie Ruzhuo stopped her and winked at her.
Seeing Xie Ruzhuo, Xie Ruyin immediately curled her lips and said softly, "Fourth sister, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it. I just didn't want to embarrass the Xie family. After all, I am the daughter of the Xie family." At this point, she said " "Wow" and started crying.
Xie Ruyue followed Xie Ruzhuo's gaze and discovered that Hongying, the girl beside Aunt Liu, was missing. She immediately understood the reason for Aunt Liu's uncharacteristic behavior. No wonder Aunt Liu had been holding back today, as she was moving in for reinforcements!
Hearing the faint sound of footsteps outside the door, Aunt Liu immediately changed her expression, sat down on the ground, and cried, "You just bully us two, we are weak, come here to bully you. I know I am a concubine, But Ruyin is your sister, she is so young, wuwu."
When Aunt Liu cried, it was earth-shattering, and there was no image at all.
Xie Ruzhuo frowned, and quickly ordered Qianbi to help him up, and then said, "I'm not here today to hold people accountable. It's just that the sixth sister wants to paint, so at least let me know first. I'm not a stingy person, and I will definitely do it myself. Teach her, and I guarantee that she won’t disgrace the Xie family. But what does this matter now?”
As he said that, Xie Ruzhuo looked like he hated iron and said, "Sixth sister, do you know why I am angry today? What I am angry about is not that you copied my paintings and forced me to change my talent. What I am angry about is, I had already painted this picture of falling snow and cold plums somewhere else half a year ago! If someone uncovers this picture, wouldn’t it mean to make fun of my Xie family’s daughter who has no ability and can only plagiarize other people’s things! When the time comes, the lost My face became furious!"
At the end of the sentence, Xie Ruzhuo's tone became more serious. Aunt Liu was frightened by her, and she and Xie Ruyin immediately looked at each other.
Before Aunt Liu could speak, she heard Ji's displeased voice coming from behind her, "Humph, I have done something shameful, and yet I dare to cry here, I am not ashamed!"
While Ji was speaking, she let go of the maid's hand, pointed at Aunt Liu angrily, and said, "Look at the good daughter you taught. She doesn't know how to learn well every day, and she just goes astray. She is so petty, how can she have the slightest bit of common sense?" Style?!”
Seeing Mrs. Ji come in, everyone hurriedly said hello. Xie Ruyue stepped forward to help Ms. Ji, and said angrily, "Grandma, you don't know how outrageous what happened today. The sixth sister plagiarized Zhuo'er's work." It's just a painting, but do you know how she copied it? In order to paint this painting of falling snow and cold plums, she asked the maid to pour a cup of tea on Zhuo'er! Originally Zhuo'er was going to paint, but the sixth sister asked specifically As a result, as soon as I accompanied Zhuoer to change clothes, the maid over there came to report that the sixth sister had already started painting. Zhuoer had no choice but to temporarily change the program and dance with me. "
Everything she said was true, and it was basically the same as what Ji had learned. After hearing this, Mrs. Ji suddenly became furious and said, "Wow, at such a young age, you have learned to attack your sisters without learning anything else! How can I tolerate you with such vicious thoughts? Come on, Liu will The young lady will be under strict supervision and will be grounded for a month. If she cannot change her mind during this period, she will never leave this gate!"
"Why!" After hearing this, Xie Ruyin shouted aggrievedly, "Grandma, I'm not convinced. It was wrong of me to plagiarize the fourth sister's paintings today. I apologize for this. But, the fourth sister didn't do it either. She donated countless amounts of money after her family agreed, why don't you punish her!"
Xie Ruyin became very jealous when she thought of this. Xie Ruzhuo's casual donation is five thousand taels, but his monthly income is only a few taels! She was really unconvinced!
Hearing this, Xie Ruyue immediately sneered and said, "Sixth sister, let alone saying that the money donated by Zhuo'er was left by my mother for the dowry shop, just talking about today's matter is the words of the Holy One. Did you know that the floods in the south of the Yangtze River are The Xie family is already responsible, but now Zhuoer takes the lead in donating money, how much contribution has the Xie family made today?"
The Ji family still knew about the affairs of the court. After listening to this, he immediately understood the key points and looked at Xie Ruzhuo more and more.
Looking at Xie Ruyin with an angry look on her face, Ji immediately felt extremely disappointed. She beat the crested crutch in her hand on the ground and said angrily, "Aunt Liu, this is the daughter you raised. She can't tell right from wrong! You go back. Take good care of your daughter. If you no longer understand the rights and wrongs of human relationships, then I will ground you too!"
Seeing the old lady giving the final order, Aunt Liu felt secretly resentful, but she also knew that the matter could only end here. She made up her mind, scolded Xie Ruyin, and said, "I ask you to study hard with your sisters on weekdays. Is this what you learned? It's something you can't live up to! Xiangqin, take the lady back to the room. From today on, One female ring a day, if it can’t be written well, it will never be published!”
Xie Ruyin looked at Aunt Liu in disbelief, cried angrily, and ran back to the room. Aunt Liu tried her best to suppress the distress and resentment in her eyes, and instead smiled and said, "Yue'er, Zhuo'er, I'm really sorry for what happened today. I didn't take care of Ruyin and let her make such a big mistake. You are sisters, please be more tolerant of her."
